misogynists
Haters of women
Misogynists are people who hate or hold contempt for women.
The term applies to those whose prejudice manifests in beliefs, attitudes, or actions—from casual dismissiveness to systematic discrimination.
The comments section was flooded with misogynists attacking the female CEO.
A single such person is a misogynist; the attitude itself is misogyny.
